Be careful.
Iho in3.1Tenant man xvho lays a
lot to barm a fellow creature
should be very careful that' he does
n0 t involve himself in trouble.
(}od has so constituted the world
that wickedness often recoils with
terrible effect upon its author,
yhe Psalmist saw this fact long
a <ro. Speaking of the evil schemer
he said: “He made a pit and dig
ged it, and is fallen into the ditc 1
which he has made. His mischief
shall return upon his own head,
and his violent dealing shall come
down upon his own pate.” Moral
laws do not vary from age to age.
They are just as operative now as
they were three thousand years
ago. Let the mischief-maker be
ware. Whether he knows it or
not, there is trouble ahead of him,
and serious trouble at that. He
can no more escape than he can
turn aside the course of the stars.

A Distinguished Divine.
Rev. George F. Goetchius, of
Rome, preached two eloquent and
powerful sermons here Sunday at
the First Presbyterian church.
Two large congregations greeted
him, and they praise him in un
measured terms. The Citizen
knows and loves Mr. Goetchius,
for he is one of the most lovable
men in the world. Everybody in
Rome entertains the warmest love
and greatest respect for him. We
hope he will come to Dalton often.
Services at the First Baptist.
Prof. Frank Berry handled the
big organ at the First Baptist
church Sunday. He played
an intermezzo by Raoul Faure.
Dr. Goodwin took the thirty-fifth
verse of the eighteen chapter of
Matthew for his text. It was the
duty of forgiving injuries. There
has never been a finer sermon
preached in Dalton. He said:
“ Heathen philosophers like Plato
taught we should exercise clem
ency toward our enemies, but Ar
istotle and Cicero, that revenge
was a duty, and to forgive an
enemy displayed a narrow and
weak mind. Peter wanted to
know how often we should forgive
an injury, and asked if seven times
| was the limit. But Christ knew
[ the world needed a definite answer
on the subject, and replied that it
should be seventy times seven,
thus establishing a rule by whieh
j the world might go. Forgiveness
| has its origin in the forgiving na
ture of God—our sins are self-be
gotten—our virtues are reproduc
tions of divine character. Christ’s
answer to Peter set the rule* for
j human action as far from the Rab
binical rule as the east is from the
west. No one can conceive the
extent of the debt God paid for
'is by sending His son as an as-
surety for us. By His suffering
and death he discharged our debt,
and the only terms He now re
quires of us is the simple one of
I re pentance.
“Forgiveness must come from
&e heart—to say I forgive my
[enemy but won’t forget him, I
w °uld do him no harm, or I would
help him in distress is no forgive
ness, and you can’t palm it off on
| for such.”
Ihe above is merely a cursory
| ®ummary of Dr. Goodwin’s sermon,
h would have done every person
| la Dalton good to have heard it.

Poor Mrs. Dunn she died for fun,
She got so fat she could not run,
Some say she died of a scare,
But what killed Mrs. Dunn was lager

Our Correspondent Drops into Poetry
and Writes an Obituary.
Washington, D. C., July 18,
1898.—I wrote you last week that
before the last of the week San
tiago would surrender, and now
we have the city and twenty-five
thousand prisoners and all of East-
ern Cuba. I am sorry that we
are compelled to send them to
Spain. Would much prefer for
them to walk home as our boys
did when Vicksburg went up—
but any thing to get theD ons out
of our country, and then to know
that the yellow fever has broken
out in our army. I do hope it
wont spread and that our army
will soon be moved to a more
healthy place. I know 'quite a
number of the soldier boys over
there and as Washington has a
full regiment in the trenches there
is great uneasiness among their
friends here. The next move will
be Porto Rico, and we will soon
have that place.
Last week was one of excite
ment up here. Crowds would be
seen at the bulletin boards all the
time, anxious to get the latest
news. Let us hope that we will
soon have peace.
I received The Citizen on time
and was surprised to learn of the
marriage of my friend *Will Black
and to know that he was married
over at my friend Bill Echols—
and a widow at that. But I sup
pose Bill wanted to take her with
him when he goes to the legisla
ture in Atlanta. I wish Will a
long life of happiness.
My friend Neal Trevitt and some
of the second Tennessee now at
Camp Alger came over to see me.
Was glad to see the boys and had
a good time with them.
I received a dispatch from Col.
Brown from Tampa Friday even
ing, informing me that Lank had
been transferred to the hospital at
Atlanta. Was glad to know that
he was able to be moved. Have
just received a dispatch from Dal
ton saying he was in Atlanta.
Was so glad to hear from him and
hope he will soon be able to go to
Dalton.
The Georgia Press Association
arrived in Washington yesterday
evening, about two hundred strong.
They are stopping at the Metro
politan Hotel. I went over to see
them and, as usual, Dalton had no
representative. It seems to me
you could have come. I would
have seen that you had a good
time while here. I met Brother
Johnson, who at one time was our
pastor, and a few others I knew.
Willgo out with themjthis evening.
Oh, how I wish you was here to
with us. We have so many

Real Genius.
“ Yo talk about genius, suh, re

Cloverdale county, Kentucky, “as

suh. Th’ fact o’ the’ mawter is,
it’s only at reah intervals that
one encountahs genius nowadays.
Despite ma extensive acquaintance
throughout this kentry, I can only
recall one case of push and una
dulterated genius. The man was
Majah Evans, of Bourbon county,
ma native State. I remembah, in
th’ palmy days, suh, to have seen
th’ majah distinctly intoxicated
three times one day between sun
rise and sunset. That’s genius,

ten out and placed in the hands of
all its ticket agents at principal
points, a War Atlas showing the
United States, European Coun
tries, Cape Verde and Philippine
Islands, Cuba and its larger cities

World, North America, Europe
and South America.
These Atlases are full of in
formation and will prove of great
assistance in understanding the
movements of fleets and armies as
given in the newspapers. On
account of the great expense of
getting out this Atlas, the Sea
board Air Line is compelled to fix
a price of twenty-five cents each,
which is merely nominal.

plication to agents, representatives
